As a registered psychotherapist with a creative art therapy and pastoral background I work from a collaborative position of care, curiosity and empathy. I utilise a variety of approaches to match your specific goals and needs, facilitating understanding of your particular situation to overcome stuckness. One of the philosophies that resonates for me is, “The problem is the problem, the person is not the problem” (White & Epston, founders of Narrative therapy).
I have a specific interest and experience in working with veterans living with mental health issues and trauma (EMDR, one approach I use), an excellent rapport with children, particular using creative approaches, and 15 years clinical pastoral experience in bereavement, grief and loss and other significant life events.
Often our inner world becomes blocked by stress, anxiety and patterned behaviour. The creative unconscious is a wonderful source of freeing these blockages and guiding us toward alternative, more productive storylines. In my experience, people tend to have their own answers; we sometimes just need help to see them.
